How to Automate Calendar & Scheduling as a Language Tutor

Teaching 25 students across four languages means dealing with iTalki cancellations, random WhatsApp requests, and timezone headaches. When a corporate client like GlobalTech needs to reschedule eight employees, doing it by hand eats up your teaching time and leaves gaps in your income.

The Current Reality

The Manual Way

Digging through WhatsApp threads to check Google Calendar, calculating time zones yourself, and texting students to get confirmations.

4 hours per week
  1. Check WhatsApp for cancellation messages from iTalki or private students.
  2. Open Google Calendar to find open slots that work for the student's timezone.
  3. Write individual texts to suggest new times and wait for replies.
  4. Update calendar invites and send Zoom links once you get a yes.
  5. Track unpaid cancellation fees in a separate spreadsheet.

AI Secretary

Ugh, just got 3 texts from my B2 French students cancelling tomorrow. Can you find them new slots this weekend? Preferably Saturday morning.
9:41 AM
Got it. I found openings at 9am, 10am, and 11am EST on Saturday. I've tentatively held these and sent WhatsApp messages to Sophie, Marc, and Claire asking them to pick one. Should I enforce the 24-hour cancellation fee?
9:41 AM
Yes, charge the fee for Sophie since she gave less than 12 hours notice. Waive it for Marc and Claire this time.
9:42 AM
Done. Sophie has been invoiced $50. Marc and Claire are confirmed for 10am and 11am respectively. Calendar updated and Zoom links sent.
